Innocent????

[curmugeon]

You pump 50 bullets into a man and you get acquitted. Seems the cops of New York can abuse or kill without paying the cost. When you shot 31 times, you had to take time to reload. That could be taken as the officer had determined he was going to kill, not wound, but surely kill the victim. Take the scene; you are leaving a strip club, a stranger follows you and suddenly approaches your care with a Glock aimed at you. Can you convict an officer of the law in New York? I doubt it. Are the officer innocent? I doubt it. Too much fire power. No, sorry Obama, justice was not done.

Keep in mind that these undercover officers spent four hours in that club. To remain undercover they would have to drink.

Were they under the influence when they were firing their guns? We'll never know because they weren't tested. The police protect their own.

It's not just New York. We are still the home of Motorist Rodney King ("Can't we all get along??") and that other youngster who was handcuffed and then slammed into the hood of an automobile. True, these people are still alive but the officers escaped justice here also.
